Next-gen won't damage GTA 5 sales, says Take Two

Grand Theft Auto 5 is going to 'blow everyone away'.

Not a single gamer will pass up the opportunity to play GTA 5 in September in the hope of a next-gen version coming out later, Take-Two executive chairman and chief executive officer Strauss Zelnick has told investors.

Responding to a question regarding a "dual-generation launch" for Grand Theft Auto 5, Zelnick said: "There is not one gamer who's going to sit it out of Grand Theft Auto 5 hoping that something down the road is going to come along that's better. Grand Theft Auto 5 is going to blow everyone away, and it will be in the market in September."
